June 22, 2016—Professor Adam Winkler spoke to ABC News about a Supreme Court announcement that it will not hear a challenge to an assault weapon ban in Connecticut. The Connecticut assault weapon ban, enacted in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, makes it illegal to sell military-style semi-automatic weapons and magazines that hold 10 rounds or more.

“The Supreme Court decision today was no surprise. They have avoided taking any Second Amendment cases for five years," said Professor Winkler.
